                        Monday, February 3, 2014

  Mr. GUTHRIE. Mr. Speaker, I rise today in recognition of Dr. Franklin 
D. Cheatham. After 40\1/2\ years of educating Campbellsville University 
math and computer science students, Dr. Cheatham will retire on 
December 31, 2014.
  Dr. Cheatham, senior vice president for academic affairs, attended 
Campbellsville College (before it became Campbellsville University) and 
graduated in 1965. He joined the university as a faculty member in 
1973.
  Named a Distinguished Alumnus in 2002, Dr. Cheatham received several 
awards for his dedication to academic excellence and the students at 
Campbellsville University. Among the awards are: Teaching Excellence 
and Campus Leadership Award (1989) and the Campbellsville/Taylor County 
Chamber of Commerce ``Educator of the Year Award'' (1992 & 2000).
  IN addition to teaching, Dr. Cheatham has also served as a faculty 
advisor for Sigma Zeta and the science and math honor societies. He 
also served as president of and on the board of directors of the 
Consortium for Computing in Small Colleges.
  Dr. Cheatham has gone above and beyond his duties as professor and 
Campbellsville University and his many students have seen the benefits 
of those actions. Today I thank Dr. Cheatham for his four decades in 
education and wish him well in his retirement.
